Where we live it is no desert for the rains still fall. Where we live the cacti stand tall, proud and green Men and Women defending rocky slopes of heaven. Where we live the bat flies with the nighthawks, dog fights at twilight against hordes of insects. The lizard and snake fear a Greater Roadrunner who laughs at passing cars, for it shall outlive The Petrol Race centuries forward.
The Sunrise seems like The Mountains' live birth to a bright blazed star. The Sunset bombs a horizon filmed with faraway layers of dust. The milk cloud of stars and cosmic debris. The Moon rising, a pale beacon beyond The Mesquite.
